Allowing Sex Offenders to Change Name is to be Banned + Indeterminate Prison Sentence
Loophole Allowing Sex Offenders to Change Their Name to be Banned
Indeterminate Prison Sentences - When 18 Months Can Last 18 Years
BBC 5 OCT 2023
The home secretary confirmed the government will bring in Della's Law, which will stop sex offenders from changing their names via deed poll.
Sex offenders will be banned from exploiting a loophole that allows them to change their names under plans announced by the home secretary.
Suella Braverman confirmed the government would bring forward legislation that will stop registered sex offenders from changing their identities, while also strengthening background checks to catch them if they do.
The plans come following campaigning from the Safeguarding Alliance - whom she thanked in her speech - for the government to implement Della's Law, named after Della Wright who was raped when she was six years old by a man
who had changed his name
five times.
Indeterminate Prison Sentences
The UN rapporteur for torture has told this programme that Indeterminate prison terms, or IPP Sentences, which were handed down by UK judges up until 11 years ago are an "egregious miscarriage of justice".
Calls for re-sentencing have been rejected and though there've been no new IPPs since 2012, old ones mean nearly 3,000 prisoners are still affected.
In this special report, Martin Read spoke to those still imprisoned under the measures like Carl Lamb. He's been in jail for 18 years for actual bodily harm, while his original sentence was just 18 months.
